Needed to read this for many different reasons than the story being told. Wonderful message.

Just do nothing, as Lao Zi said, but it’s really hard even with myself, not trying to leap from stop to boost, assuming it would be always forwards

What a great reminder. I look back now 35-45 years ago. Those struggles/setbacks have become such a blessing, especially in seeing how God was preparing me for the journey ahead.

As a Parent, (I know I’m preaching to the choir) it hurts to see my kids go through the same type of struggles not to the extent we went through. They have Parents who jump in too soon, tough love doesn’t come naturally. Thanks again, good reminder. Enjoy the Journey Now!!

Such a valuable FF perspective. Your post in the context of Max's journey is an outstanding metaphor for life. Lucky kid to have you as a dad. Thank you.
